Dual Monitor cards GF2 or GF4

[Thunderbird]

For GF2 MX cards the option for multiple vga outputs was called Twinview. Now nvidia calles it nView on Geforce 4 (MX/TI) cards and other new cards. This is a new marketing name, actually it is Twinview 2.0 and it supports multiple screens at high resolutions using high refresh rates. So any GF4 based card you pick with multiple outputs will do fine.

WAIT A SEC

I remember something about the g450 that I used to have...

There is a line you can change in the driver to have the second head run at higher resolutions... I would go to the linux forum at www.matrox.com and ask there

For GF2 MX cards it is a hardware limitation.

Maybe someone on here knows the answer to my question:

Is there a Geforce 4 Card that supports dual VGA, and supports 1280x1024@85hz+ on both heads? I just bought the new Matrox card and am pretty unhappy with it so far.... but at least it runs my second head at 85hz.

Can anyone point me to a particular brand of card that supports dual head vga and 85hz+ on both heads?

I am running two 19inch monitors at 1600x1200@85Hz on an Asus V8440 GeForce 4 Ti4400. Works like a charm!

I'd expect it to work on any GeForce4 with two connectors, though.
